In concluding this hasty and imperfect review of the proceedings of the Assembly for the Jast week, we feel much pleasure in being able to direct the attention of our readers to the promptitude with which his Fxcellency has responded, the very mo- menthe felt himself at liberty to doso, to the wishes of the People, as expressed through their Representatives, both with regard to the introduction of the Respon- | eible System, and the resumption of the Inland Mail Service; and we hai) that promptitude as a very decided indication ped ina Z'imes Newspaper, and tied at one end with a piece of white tape, under the sill of the house, in a state of partial combustion. Fortunately, the miscreant appears to have been disturbed and driven off by Capt. Mayne’s dog, before a suc- cessful issue to the plot had been secured. Suspicion having fallen upon a female in the employment of Mr. L. White, whe occupies the adjoining premises, 8 W arrant was issued for her apprehension, and a searching invsetigation into al) the circumstances of the case took place on Saturday morning last, before a full Bench of Magistrates; but no evidence in any way connecting her with the of- fence was elicited, further than the utter- of the readiness with which his Excel. lency, when surrounded by a Council having the confidence ofthe people, will ever be found to co-operate with them for ‘the public good. Before our next issue of the Examiner, the absurd—we believe we may say un- precedented—anomalision of the public business being carried on,—a3 has too long been the case in our House of As- sembly—not only independently of the Government, but in spite of it, will, we trust, have ceased to exist; and they who represent the Government, in that Branch of the Legislature, bejfound occupying their legitimate position therein as mem— bers of the majority. POST OFFICE. We have much pleasure in being able to direct the attention of our readers to the Documents which are inserted in other columns of this paper, by order of the Assembly, in reference to an inquiry into the suspension of the Inland Mail service, during the last summer, through the ma- Jignant intervention of the late Governor. The evidence giyen by Mr. Owen before the special Committee establishes beyond she possibility of doubt, that the suspen- sion of the Inland Mails was not neces- sarily consequent upon the refusal of the Aasembly to grant the usual supplies, for -that gentleman most satisfactorily proves, what we have all along asserted, that the Mails could have been continued inde- pendently of a Legislative grant; and that the loss to the revenue, and the mischievous consequences to the commn- nity, arising from the suspension of the service, is wholly and solely attributable to Sir Donald and his obstructive Coun- ei'. But if any thing can prove more elearly than another the guilt of what must soon be styled “the date Govern- ment,” in this transaction, it isthe order which Sir Alexander Bannermar has given to the Deputy Postmaster General yo resume the transmission of the [nland Maile, for no public money is set apart for that service now any more than there waa Jast summer.

A reward has since been offered by Capt. Mayne for the detection of the culprit, and we sincerely trust, for the credit of all par- ties concerned, and for the good of the community generally, that the really guilty individual will speedily be dis- covered and brought to punishment.
